 Next thing you know people will start claimingh it's actually better than real 1080P. Because Sony. Mark my words.

 

I mean come on Guerrilla felt the need to even note "it's very computationally expensive" or whatever. obviously defensive. If it's so computationally expensive then why didn't you just use real 1080P?

 

I think Xbox should start using this technique, then we should go point out all these past posts saying how good it was for Shadowfall, when people criticize it :)

It is not demanding like native 1080p but it is more demanding than 720p or I guess even 900p upscaled with better IQ too...

BTW it needs a good chunk of fast read/write RAM... I can't see how devs can store the frame buffer and these isolated addictional frames in the 32MB eSRAM to work with... store in DDR3 will be too slow to do that every frame in 60fps... so I guess this tech won't be used in Xbone's games.

I can be wrong too.

You shouldn't guess/compare with 720p or 900p requirements, because you don't have the graphics development knowledge. That conclusion on the DDR3 is wrong, coping 960x1080 images from - to RAM isn't very bandwidth expensive.
